Ya, just an assortment of what the game thinks were the most impressive stats for the length of the match. Voting for people doesn't give anything but warm fuzzies. 5 votes gets someone an "Epic" callout and 10 votes gets a "Legendary".

So I continued to practice with the bots in range and what Anne linked on youtube from Taimou, and I think I'm already used to the lower DPI.
I did a quickplay match with Mccree where I had 51% average accuracy, I was hitting the enemy widow and the pharah very consistently.
I am so happy to have changed DPI.
Oh nice! I've been getting it a lot with Mercy and got it just after playing Zenyatta for my first time. I am going to try getting really good using him. I also just found out my friend bought me Overwatch for PS4. I guess I have to play it on both PC and PS4 now.
Cool. Send me an invite, as I'm online right now.
The key to learning Zen is to have both of your Orbs out as often as humanly possible. He does a lot of damage, but you're taking him for his Orbs. There's an icon in the bottom right that will appear over the ability icons when you have each Orb on another player, so make sure to keep checking that constantly until you get comfortable. The Orbs will still stay on a player for a few seconds after you lose line of sight with them, so make sure to pay attention to the audio cues when you get your orbs back so you can throw them out again.
This is good advice. I am still learning him too and his Discord Orb on the enemy front line and his Harmony Orb on your tank makes a big difference in a lot of matches.
Harmony Orb is very useful to put on your diving teammates, like a Winston, Genji, D.Va, etc. Anyone that's gonna take big risks and jump into the enemy team to try initiate a teamfight.
I see a lot of Zens just leave their Harmony on their Rein, which uh... well, he has a shield and you probably have an Ana, so there are almost always better targets for that Orb.
Always put discord orbs on tanks, priority Reinhardt then Dva in my opinion. Always be juggling your harmony orb, and put it on the diving team mates or Reinhardt when he charges when nobody else needs healing.
Ya, Harmony on a charging Rein is good, I just meant don't leave it sitting on a Rein that is just holding his shield up. Don't be a lazy Zen.
Haha, I wish I had that varied of a comp in my QP matches. If I am lucky I will see a Roadhog but it's usually Solider/Hanzo/Widow/Symm or Junkrat and i am stuck playing a healerless Dva or solo healing. I almost never see a Winston and don't trust a Genji to not kill themselves instantly til they prove me wrong. About 60 seconds into the match i can usually tell where it's gonna be the rest of the game.
Hog is the biggest priority for me. Most dangerous one but also most vulnerable. If he's out of position and you discord him you can take him out really easily giving. Rein and Dva can prevent damage while Hog can't.
For Zenyatta on PS4 I suggest to rebind jump to L2.
I personally don't use alt fire at all and don't miss it.
Step it up and get Ana PotG not highlights. So rare to get though
I just got back into the game and dove into competitive with Ana so I'm still learning the ropes with her so to speak.
I've yet to get a legitimate play of the game with her, even though she is so powerful that she frequently tilts matches.
I don't use Zen alt-fire much on PC, either. I put Discord Orb on Right-Click and the alt-fire on Mouse 5.

I prioritise Dva with discord because fuck me she is too hard to kill now.
same. I rarely take it off her.

Hanamura on defense, enemy team already has two thirds of B point. 4 teammates leave the point to chase a fleeing Rein that's low on health, leaving me as Lucio and Mercy to defend the point against the other 5 opponents rushing to murder our asses.
Edit: That's five matches (and defeats) in a row where I was forced to go healer because nobody else would. Don't be fooled, Diamond is the exact same shit as platinum or even lower. Nobody wants to take one for the team. It's all about picking that sweet, sweet main.

lol one of my biggest pet peeves in the game is people leaving points/payloads to chase 1 person. THis is specially annoying on something like dorado where people defending any of the points pass that halfway point and the attacking teams run back is faster than yours, so they can reinforce faster, wiping your team and getting a free push on the payload rather than your team fighting closer to your spawn (or at least the halfway points). Like just wipe them, regroup, do it again, no need to go out closer to their spawn.

Random thought but I'd actually love to see a random limitless heroes pro tournament for a weekend or something. Would spice things up and make it fun to watch whilst adding something different to the current meta.
KOREA and stan should just trio up with Seagull, they've played 3 games in a row together now.

Do you really want to see 3 syms + 3 Dvas mirror matches.
No hero limit shit pro meta is what made them add the limit in the first place, no one wants to see even less heroes played. Good old 2 Tracers on koth, so fun.

I was somehow disconnected 5 seconds into my ranked queue, relogged, rejoined a game and then was immediately kicked from it and put on suspension.
Ok...
Ok...
It's really hard to kill a Pharah with McCree especially when she is mobile and raining rockets on you.

I can understand that when your team's in a really good position, but the opponents had just taken two third of point B on the first push. I don't know what they were thinking. It would've been hilarious to watch if I hadn't been on the receiving end though !
First match out of seven where I don't pick a healer and what do I get ? A PM with "pls pick healer". Fucking hell.

OMFG one of the most intense KOTH games ever. Totally back and forth I was going insane with Dva. We were down 2-1 and our Mercy finally switched and we wonthe next round 100-0. in the final round we were doing great and then at 99-0 one our dudes left. We ended up losing, most infuriating loss ever. The dude rejoined just as 'defeat' came on screen. Such an epic game and performance totally ruined.

Had a winter mystery game last night on attack on Hanamura where the enemy team got 3 D.Va's and a Mercy while we got stuck with Trobjorn and crap........
We didn't get very far :/

That feel when you are in a match with two Top 50 DPS mainers, and a Diamond ranked "Junkrat main" starts bragging about being one of the 30th best Junkrats in the world and refuses to swap forcing one of the Top 500s to heal.
We won, handily (Mostly because I swapped to Mercy and pocketed the fuck out of the other Top 500 who was playing Pharah). But I kinda wish we lost because for the rest of the night I kept running into that guy and he always played Junkrat and was bragging about it....

Lol yeah I've been watching it since the beginning but I don't know, wouldn't hurt as a one night / weekend Gosu tournament just for shits and giggles.
There were better plays tonight, but this one is more exciting.

Competitive is just impossible.
Have a few good matches or just utter destruction of the enemy team, then 6 matches where you get gold with 2 elims.. wtf.
Also i have never heard another player say a single word on ps4 on competitive in like 50 matches.

just had a match on kings row where nothing happened on the first point. absolutely nothing.
I was d.va and didnt stop shooting once, except for when i ulted. Enemy d.va was the same. Both D. va/Rein/Ana pairs didn't die a single time.
My eyes glazed over.

I think gold.
Also i am getting quitters 1 out of every 4 matches or so. Currently waiting for a match to be over where 5 of the other team left after we won the first match.. ridiculous on console. Its more convenient to play but the playerbase is utter trash.

Can't win two matches in a row to save my life since the holidays have started, so here we are.
I'm not sure I'll bother for the rest of the season. It's just demoralizing when you work your ass off for dozens of matches to hang on to your rank and then you lose it all in a couple of nights.

Zen's alt fire does 230 with no discord or headshots, it's perfect for popping into tight lanes for a split second to provide burst fire. It's also super accurate and can be used to take out Torb's turrets, Bastion and Widows over long range.

This is me currently I've uninstalled the game and I'm going take a break away until new season. I've reach my goal of getting diamond. Staying there would be my next.
I remember popping around the corner by the gas station on 66 and oneshotting a poor Mercy who just happened to be there with that full charge. She got sallllllty, chased me with her gun the rest on the game.
